Morning all took DS to the London Transport museum in London yesterday.
You can see he is that little bit older now, he was saying I've been here before, Piccadilly Circus and he was very excited by it all.
Has hia photo taken with some.of.the.eggs in covent.garden.
He really enjoyed the museum and asked if we could come back soon.

Hope her insurance won't be to bad think it is ridiculous the amounts they want to charge the youngsters these days for their insurance makes you realise why many youngsters then don't get insured:eek::eek::eek:. When DNephew passed about a year ago they wanted to charge him £4000:eek: no way they have that kind of many so falls to bank mum & dad, he managed to get it down to £1500+ by agreeing to have a black box thing fitted which restricts times they are allowed to drive monitors their speeds and stopping etc this was the only way to get it cheaper at the time.
Glad youi enjoyed the London trip it is exhausting thou.:)
We gave her OH's car (minus a contribution) last year when she got her provisional, it's an '05 Honda Jazz 1.2S - brilliant car and cheap to insure. I rang insurance company up when she passed and additional premium to amend policy to 22/4 was under £10 :j. Renewal premium has only gone up £105 to £790 which I think is excellent compared to what some teenagers pay like your DN.
It was actually cheaper to give her the car and get OH a newer one than to put her as a named driver on OH's policy :eek:
London is exhausting but fun - I'm back at work now for a rest :rotfl:

Quick hello from me peeps but RL keeping me busy atm as holiday is coming round very quickly and trying to get loads of last minute stuff done. Clothes, household goods - just about everything really are very expensive in Malta and we try to take as much as possible for the boys as we can. One of them is into books by Geronimo Stilton ?? and they are equivalent to £13-£14 each. And he reads one a day :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: I have been tracking some down around the £3-£4 mark so will take as :eek:many as I can.0

Don't quite hit the congestion zone when we go to ikea and the concert we are going with a coach company bit of a rip off as the coach costs more than the concert but its the easiest way to get there0 -
